5 ways to prevent rusting fro iron

Here are some ways where we can prevent rusting :

1. Paint it - Paint the metal with any durable acrylic paint. Do not use Water-Soluable paints, since they will only worsen the rust. Rust will form underneath this type of paint.

2. Keep moisture at Bay - Avoid contact with water or moisture. We know that the water has chemical formula which corresponds to 2 parts Hydrogen and 1 part Oxygen. Hence oxygen is responsible for oxidation of iron and therefore forms rust.

3. Coat it with Oil - Use of oil or grease significantly reduces the chances of developing rust in iron. Basically, oil or grease form a protective layer over iron just as paint does and therefore prevent rust formation.

4: Use an Alloy: The use of alloys, like stainless steel, is one of the most common ways to prevent rust, or slow it down. Stainless steel isn’t suitable or economical for all applications, but it will work for many.

5: Galvanize: Galvanizing coats iron or steel in zinc to protect from rust. Zinc corrodes at a much slower rate than iron or steel, so it’s highly effective for slowing rust.
